The second watch, there are two more, ask for a monthly pass!

Napoleon III was joined by General MacMahon, the leader of the Charlon's legion, and the only one of the Provisional Government of the Third Reich to take a cold sidelook. The reason is simple, Michael Mahon was originally a supporter of the royalists, but Napoleon, in the case of the gunpowder conspiracy, sent everyone of the royalists to the guillotine. Then the repression was even more severe than that of the Jacobins during the French Revolution.

Because of this, he classified Napoleon among the radical liberals. The differences between political ideas and factions of interest led him to subtly believe that the masterminds behind Paris were the enemy. Therefore, in response to Napoleon's invitation to a military conference, McMahon looked coldly at the Third Reich that appeared on French soil with a reluctant attitude.

Of course, MacMahon had not yet seen Napoleon's methods, so he did not know the man's resolute attitude, the Jewish banking family in Paris called him a devil, and Guerome was still in the camp of the Prussian army and did not dare to go back. For fear of ending up with the same fate as the royalists.

The generals who had been resistant to Napoleon saw the banquet as a "feast". When Louis heard that his uncle was going to hold this meeting, he quietly came to his room and advised him not to act aggressively at the meeting.

"For example?" Napoleon asked, "Do they have a record of success?" ”

"For example, they are accused of fighting poorly, and there are still a considerable number of old generals in the French army who are loyal to the Second Empire, as you can see, why some people have survived the change of regime and still survived. Because of their prestige and connections in the military, even the leaders of the new government had to build good relations with them. As a veteran of both dynasties, you should be kind to MacMahon for his outstanding achievements in the July Dynasty's colonial wars, and after the collapse of the July Dynasty, he became a guest of honor in the Second French Empire, and distinguished himself in the Crimean War and the Italian War. ”

Napoleon nodded and said, "I have always been kind to my generals, except for incompetent mediocre and cowards. Putting aside the waste of Ottoman Turkey, in the face of the Russian Empire, which had chaotic command and a mess of combat mobilization, McMahon was actually embarrassed to brag about that little combat record? Yes, his only boast was in 1859 in the Second Italian War of Independence against the Austrian Empire in support of the Kingdom of Sardinia, and it was not easy to hear that in the Battle of Tsushima Genta, in the confusion of my nephew and your command, he was able to take the initiative to find a place with dense artillery fire to attack and advance, and to seize the Margenta Bridge and become the key to the victory of the French army. ”

Louis Bonaparte bowed his head in shame, facing his uncle's taunts and accusations, and had no chance to refute them at all. It was only after seeing the bloodshed of the Battle of Paris that he realized the gap between himself and the "real Napoleon".

"I really don't know why after the myth of the Second Empire has been shattered, they can still be so comfortable thinking that they can hold important positions in the army organized by the new government. Does the important position of the army have to be reserved for a group of mediocre people? They were the worst army commanders I've ever seen. ”

Louis had some impulses of regret, as a half-bucket layman, he should not have talked to his uncle about the army.

"I want to use this meeting to let the second-rate generals who have rolled back from the prisoner of war camps know how far their standards are from the quasi-first-class marshals of the First Empire."

It was a very lively meeting of the military headquarters, and in addition to the chief of staff, Levlo, there were also General de Fay, General Félix Douai, who rolled back from the prisoner of war camp.

General Frossal, General Radmiro, Commander Bourbaki, General François Sertan Conrobert, and Chief of the General Staff Leboeuf returned from the terrible hell of the Metz fortress.

Having seen Storville's decision to seize the opportunity to directly execute General Bazin in the fortress of Metz, and the military order issued by Paris, everyone else was terrified of the incoming commander-in-chief. The French generals in the Prussian prisoner of war camps did not yet know that after contact with Napoleon, they would rather accept the humiliation of defeat in the Prussian prisoner of war camps than tremble in his shadow.

Everyone sat down at the round table, and Napoleon was the last to enter the room. And the moment Napoleon appeared, everyone else present changed their faces, and the general, who graduated from the Military Academy of Saint-Cyr, must have seen the portrait of Napoleon hanging in the hall. And the person in front of him is almost as if he has come out of a portrait.

The generals who returned from the Metz fortress had mixed expressions, although they had heard many rumors about the resurrection since they stepped into Paris, but after really seeing the identity of the emperor, these people were still quite shocked.

It's so similar, like even they doubt their beliefs.

Napoleon looked around at the generals with different expressions and motioned for them to relax.

"Today is here to summarize the defeat of a war, in fact, I am not a needle, I mean that the performance of all of you in this battle is very rubbish. Of course, my nephew is half to blame for his strategic mistakes, and if it weren't for the lack of preparation in the early stage, and the fact that he listened to Empress Eugenie's words later, he would not have been defeated to the point of becoming a prisoner. ”

McMahon was disgruntled and deliberately interrupted Napoleon's words.

"You mean that in the whole Franco-Prussian War, the others did not perform as well as you did in the defense of Paris?"

The eyes of the other generals present were focused on McMahon's rebuttal, and the sudden provocation did not make Napoleon show an angry look, but said slowly, "Since we are talking about mistakes, let's start with Marshal McMahon." ”

"When the French army failed in the initial battle on the border and decided to retreat, and the Paris government did not allow the main Rhine Army to retreat, as the commander of the right wing of the French army, you should judge the situation and start from the overall situation of the war, and lead your troops to move closer to the Rhine Army in order to fight together. In this way, it was possible for the Rhine corps to avoid being encircled by the Prussian army. But you mechanically retreated to Charlon, thus giving the Prussian army a chance to take advantage of the situation to divide the entire French army into two parts, and then break them individually. ”

"Then you went against the basic principles of warfare and chose the wrong course of action to take a detour to the border city of Sedang to rescue Matz. Judging from the actual situation on the battlefield at that time, for you, the shortest, fastest and most reliable route to Metz is to pass directly through the 3rd Prussian Army. ”

"Impossible." Mike Mahon sneered and said, "Crossing through a legion is a fool's dream. ”

"That's because you don't know that the Third Army doesn't have an advantage in numbers and firepower. To do so, you need not only a keen strategic vision, but also the courage and courage to defeat a strong enemy, but you lack the qualities you should have in both areas, so you have to embark on the road of being annihilated. Am I right? ”

"On paper!"

Annoyed, Mahon suddenly stood up and walked in front of Napoleon. The right hand began to unbutton, took off his military uniform, and stood in front of him naked.

The scars of the whole body are undoubtedly revealed.

"You see, I have been loyal to France for so many years, and these are testimonies. I fought in the Battle of Constantinople, in the Colonial Wars, in the Crimean War, in the Italian War of Independence, and you are nothing but a liar posing as Napoleon, a shameless villain! ”

In the face of the accusations of the old ministers, Napoleon did not show flinching. He retorted word by word, "That's because your bravery can only be played to the fullest in second-rate battles, and compared to the opponents that the First Empire has faced, you are nothing more than a group of incompetent mediocrity." ”

Napoleon regarded first-class generals at a much higher standard than his own nephews, and if the slaughter of natives and bullying second-rate countries was also a record of achievements, the twenty-six marshals under Napoleon's command might crawl out of their coffins in anger.

He was even more disgusted by his royalist status, and in 1854 he married Elisabeth de la croix, the daughter of the Duke of Castris, whose political views influenced MacMahon and led him to the opposite side of the Third Reich.

"You'd better remember one thing for me, I am the founding father of the Third Reich, and you are nothing but mediocre in my eyes!"

"Second only to the inferior horse who surrendered to the traitor Bazin."
